Krzysztof Piesiewicz, screenwriter
After the fall of the Berlin Wall, with liberty seemingly on the horizon, I had gone to the Polish director Krzysztof Kieślowski with the idea of making a trilogy about the three ideals of the French revolution: liberty, equality and fraternity. Each were to be represented by the three colours of the French flag: red, white and blue. Fraternity, the theme of the final film Red, is a complex issue.
